Anna Kashinskaya church, Orthodox church in Vyborgsky District, Russia.

Anna Kashinskaya church is a four-pillared Orthodox church divided by piers into three naves, the side ones forming two-storey galleries. Its walls are plastered pale yellow after restoration, and it is crowned by a helmet-shaped dome on a low drum. A slender three-tier bell tower with a square base and round third tier ends in an onion dome; the porch carries an onion cupola with an imperial crown.

Construction of the metochion of the Kashinsky Sretensky Monastery began in 1907 on the site of a chapel to St Nicholas built in 1894 to mark the future Nicholas II's escape in Japan. The diocesan architect A. P. Aplaksin designed a two-storey church with an attached chapel and residential buildings. The lower side altar was consecrated in 1908 and the main altar to St Anna Kashinskaya in 1909. Closed in 1933, the church was returned to the Vvedeno-Oyatsky Monastery in 1994 and restoration began in 1995.

The church is the metochion (representation church) of the Vvedeno-Oyatsky Convent in the Tikhvin eparchy, and its main altar was consecrated in 1909 in the name of Saint Anna Kashinskaya, a Tver-region saint. The side chapels on the upper galleries, dedicated in 1911 to Saint Nicholas and Saint Alexis, Metropolitan of Moscow, show how the building layers several Orthodox devotions. The porch is crowned with a small onion dome topped by an imperial crown, a detail recalling the 1894 chapel built to mark Nicholas II's escape in Japan.

The church is accessible by public transportation to Bolshoi Sampsonievsky Prospect and welcomes visitors during its operating hours. Appropriate dress is recommended and visitors should respect the ongoing religious services and customs of the active place of worship.

The church bears the name of a convent from the Tver region, reflecting a spiritual connection between distant Orthodox communities in Russia. This naming choice reveals how religious institutions of the era maintained ties across different parts of the empire.
